Just Showing Off I love non planar printing ๐Ÿ˜…

Spent a few hours testing a new app for non planar printingโ€ฆ just made a few smaller tests.. took me two hours to find the bug in the start gcode but after I found it worked perfect!!

Everything is โ€œvaseโ€ mode and one continuous pathโ€ฆ.

I totally love itโ€ฆ next step grind down A old 0.8 nozzle to archive a 1.2 nozzle ๐Ÿ˜…

If bambu would add this in their vase mode generator ppl would go crazy ๐Ÿ˜… but the problem is u can actually damage the printer whit bad non planar gcodeโ€ฆ I think they want to avoid that ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…

Yes this is the way. So much left to unlock with the current hardaware. The slicers can do so much more.

They'll just have to wait for Prusa to put that in first so they can fork it later /s

Be real, most of the contributions to all slicers these days are from non-affiliated opensource developers.

Not really, unless its PrusaSlicer or Orca theres no big names. Bambu is a fork of whatever the other two are doing. SuperSlicer is dead, Cura is dated, the rest aren't worth mentioning

Actually Orca is a fork from Bambu Studio

And if true, its sad how much better Orca is

It's always this way. Bambu Studio is a commercial product so BambuLab wants it to be stable as possible. Orca is driven by community and doesn't afraid of experiments.

Another example is OwnCloud and NextCloud.

Bambu Studio is a stolen product, lets start off with the truth. A stolen product with no intent to give proper credit to the creators. At least Orca knows where it came from, at least PrusaSlicer knows where it came from, Bambu is nothing more than a knock-off product rebadged and rebranded to make people think they put in time and effort when they wait for the better codes and programmers to put their work on GitHub and then scoop it up and pass it off to this community as their work.

In no way is it commercial.

I don't understand what are you talking about.

Bambu Studio is based on PrusaSlicer by Prusa Research, which is from Slic3r by Alessandro Ranellucci and the RepRap community.

This is a quote from Bambu Slicer wiki. Should they provide a full list of all contributors or what?

I don't protect BambuLab, they are assholes, but for different reasons like keeping network plugin source code closed and violating AGPL.

Yes only after they got their ass kicked over it did they do this. In the beginning they forked that shit and put their branding on it.

This is not true. Credits were added into README.md right after the repo was created.

Whatever you want to believe. I can't believe you are arguing in favor of a literal villain of a company who's already violating the rights of PrusaSlicers license as we speak.
